$dec = -333371788; echo $dec."\n"; $hex = dechex($dec)."\n"; $dec2 = hexdec($hex)."\n"; echo $dec2."\n"; -= PRODUCES: =- -333371788 3961595508 Is this something about signed versus unsigned integers? What I really would like to do is convert that negative number (-333371788), which I suppose is unsigned to a signed integer (3961595508) without having to convert it to hex, then back to decimal. ....Rene
